He is best known for his \Almanac for Moderns.\ His new book \A Gathering for Birds,\ is now in our library. It is a gathering of bird lovers, brought together in this bocA, and each tells of various birds and their habits. They tell of birds from the mountains of California, through- out the United States and Canada, across the sea to the shores of Eng- land, through Europe and Asia to the islands of the sea, to South America, called the great bird continent, and then on to the far north of Alaska. In all, they find the glad singer, In the varied expression of God's eternal love. They tell us that the nightingale has the most vivid, varied, magical voice in the world of birds. The lark was the favorite of Saint Francis. In this book there are authors like John Muir, that genius, part scien- tist, part poet, part nature itself in human form; Gilbert White, who de- scribes that delicate songster, the swal- low. Gustor Keaton, a doctor of med- icine and professor of physiology in Cincinnati, writes of his pet canaries who bring him the \outlines ot Beet- hoven, and the outlines of God.\ Ri- chard Jefferles refers to the trumpeter of spring, the missel-thrush, whose proud call challenges the woods. Tho- reau, Audobon, Sir E d w a r d Grey, Chapman, William Beebe, Alfred Rus- sel Wallace and others have new and interesting things to reveal to us about birds. Those who love the song of a bird, the flash of the wings of the oriole, the quick gUmpse of a humming bird as she hovers over the heart of a flower, and would like this glimpse into the heart of these authors, will trea- sure this book of Donald C. Peattle, \The Gathering of Birds.\ BUSINESS iS DESCRIBED AS fOtfMOST OCCUPATION' Business Is today 's \foremost occu- pation.\ said Walter S.

The United States, with only one<Beven- teenth ot the world's population, will have nearly one-half ot this huge toUl. In some years, notably during those ot the 'twenties, there was an annual world-wide growth well in excess ot a million instruments, while the ds- prssslon years from 19S1 to 19SS showed losses.

Our* Ing that year the total was Increased by 2,146,986 telephones, a greater net gain than in any previous year. These figures, compiled through world-wide surveys made by the Amerl- oan Telephone and Telegraph Com- pany, reveal that at the beginning ot 1988 this world ot a little more than two billion people was using 89,246,- 089 telephones. 19.468,401 ot which were in the United States. This coun- try has 16.09 telephones tor every 100 population, or 25 per cent more than the country next best developed from a telephone viewpoint, that Is New Zealand, with 11.97 telephones per 100 population. In Europe, Denmark and Sweden lead In telephone development with 11.26 and 11.76 telephones per 100 population, respectively.

Oreat Britain, including Northern Ireland on January 1. 1938, had 8,029,- 466 telephones, equal to 6.41 per 100 population. OuUide ot Europe, Canada had 1,822,794 telephones, or 11.90 per 100 population, and Japan, 1,804,698 telephones, or 1.82 per 100 population. New York City leads the world's cities in number ot telephones, hav- ing 1,632,600 at the beginning ot 1939. Washington, D.
